In the category of \u201cHow to Make Me Feel Really Old\u201d falls the 18th birthday of our daughter (I assume our son\u2019s 18th birthday will fall into the category of \u201cHow to Make Me Feel Really Really Old.\u201d)
\nOur daughter elected to celebrate this momentous occasion of being able to sign legally binding contracts by spending it in Disneyworld.\u00a0 Fortunately, her birthday coincided with a school 3 day weekend, which made it perfect.
\nWe managed to spend time in all 4 parks, although Magic Kingdom received the brunt of our attention.\u00a0 It makes me feel all warm and gushy inside to know that this now 18 year old young woman still loves Disney and still loves the Magic Kingdom.\u00a0 (She may still turn out to be a serial killer, but at least she\u2019ll be a serial killer who loves Disney.)
\nWe stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge, so we woke up each morning to the sight of giraffes, zebras, and other wildlife right outside our balcony.
\nHigh points of the trip include:
\n\u2014 being at Magic Kingdom when the park opened at 7:00 am<\/p>\n
